Daily Update

So on friday was our well-hyped Flag-Football game vs. the SM3 ward. I was proud of how our team played, and how our coach did. The ref's were even adequate (thanks Evan). We knew what to do, and how to do it, and we executed well on all levels. But it just wasn't enough in this time of adversity. More of our players played, and we had more AND better fans they did, thats for sure. And our t-shirts were awesome! They turned out really nice. We ended up selling about half of them. By the end of the night I started loosing my voice from screaming so much. It was reminiscent of the high school football days, but someone had to rally the troops to
excitement.

After words some of us went to Jeff's house for Silvia's birthday gathering. It was fabulous cause we got Danny to sing His rendition of the Birthday song, which could be classified as disturbing. We had pizza and cake & ice cream. What more could you ask for?! I don't know how they found out about it, but there were two people from the SM ward who showed up. Only minutes earlier I definitely remember telling them that "I didn't know of any After-parties". They were a little out of place, but seemed nice enough. They left after maybe 10 minutes, when they realized they only knew one or two people there. I think there were up to 20 of us. At the end of the night we all took a few minutes to do our Danny Koontz impersonations, with him there judging us. It was terrific fun. I think Sara Collins was the best. A few of us stayed super late, but then again, Josh Jeff and I were together again :)

On Saturday Morning I helped someone move. I figured I needed to put in the 'good' hours to make up for the hours of talking bad about the Santa Monica kids leading up to this last Friday night. The highlight of the morning was the glorious donut selection they provided! And as many helpers that were also there, my back still feels like I was the only one moving the heavy stuff. We were done helping by Noon, but the day felt like it was already over. I went home to watch tv with my eyes closed. Lucky for me Mikey was watching football on tv and when he would cheer I would wake up and then ask him to rewind it. I love Tivo. And TV. And donuts.
And Sleep...

Then we had Stake conference, and I actually stayed awake. After we went to Greenfield to hang out. I convinced jeff into making Bread Pudding. and reminded the kids how to play the Wii.

I had to wake up early on Sunday due to the continuing stake conference. It was fine. we still have to be good. In the evening we all hung out over at Cheryl's. We made scones. Cheryl made me drink a diet Coke. I haven't had a cola drink in about 10 years. I tried to resist as long as possible, but she was holding a knife in one hand and the diet Coke in the other and said that I had the choice of which one I got. It tasted like I remember Coke tasting, I think. Then I was super hyper for the next 4 hours, and couldn't sleep.

I'm listening to Madonna right now.
